| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Elevation occurs when a section is lifted above zero degrees... | Graduation |
| What is the area of the head between the apex and back of the parietal ridge?? | Crown |
| What guideline doesn't move?? | Stationary |
| What is the cutting position in which the palms of both hands are facing each other?? | Palm to palm |
| What section of hair, located at the perimeter/interior of the cut, determines the length the hair will me cut?? | Guideline |
| What are the smaller sections within a larger section of hair that is used to maintain control of the hair while cutting?? | Subsections |
| What is the highest point on top of the head?? | Apex |
| What thin continuous mark is used as a guide; it can be straight /curved, horizontal,vertical/ diagonal?? | Line |
| What is it called when you comb a section away from its natural falling position?? | Over-direction |
| What greatly affects the way the hair falls and behave?? | Head form(head shape) |
| What is the direction in which the hair grows from the scalp?? | Growth Pattern(Natural falling position) |
| What technique uses diagonal lines by cutting hair ends with a slight increase/decrease in length | Beveling |
| What triangular section begins at the forehead and ends at the 4 corners?? | Bang/Fringe |
| What is the angle at which the fingers are held when when cutting, and ultimately the line that is cut?? | Elevation |
| Points on the head that signal change in the head shape, from flat to round and vice versa.... | 4 corners |
| What is the internal part of the head | Interior |
| What points on the head mark where the surface of the head changes or the behavior of the hair changes?? | Reference points |
| When dividing the hair by parting it into uniform working areas, what is it called?? | Sectioning |
| What is the back part of the neck | Nape(below occipital bone) |
| What line divides the hair to the scalp?? HINT: It creates subsections | Part/parting |
| What is the hair that grows at the outermost perimeter along the face, around the ears and neck?? | Hairline |
| What is the angle/degree at which a subsection of hair is held, or lifted from the head when cutting?? | Elevation(Projection/Lifting) |
| What is the widest area of the head?? HINT: It usually starts at the temples and ends at the bottom crown.. | Parietal Ridge |
| What is the space b/t 2 lines or surfaces that intersect at a given point?? | Angle |
| What guideline moves as the hair-cutting progresses and is often used when creating layers/graduation?? | Traveling guide |
| What is the outer line of the hairstyle?? | Perimeter |
| What one protrudes at the back of the skull?? | Occipital |
| What is the amount of pressure applied when combing and holding a section?? | Tension |
| Haircut in which all hair comes to one hanging level, forming a weight line.. | Blunt |
| Visual line in haircut where the ends of the hair hang together.. | Weight line |
| Graduated shape/wedge; an effect /haircut that results from cutting the hair with tension, low to medium elevation/over-direction.. | Graduated |
| Graduated effect achieved by cutting the hair with elevation/ over-direction; the hair is cut at 90 degrees or above, which removes weight.. | Layered haircut |
| Create movement and volume in hair by releasing weight | Layers |
| haircut in which hair is cut at a 180 degree angle; the resulting shape has shorter layers on top and increasingly longer layers toward the perimeter.. | Long layered |
| Parting the hair in the opposite way from which you cut it, to check for precision of line and weight.. | Cross checking |
| hair is elevated at 90 degrees from the scalp and cut at the same length.. | Uniform layers |
| Guideline inside the haircut rather than on the perimeter.. | Interior |
| Where and how hair moves over the head | Distribution |
| Method of cutting/thinning the hair in which the fingers & shears glide along the edge of the hair to remove length. | Slide cutting |
| haircutting technique in which hair is held in place with the comb while the tips of the scissors are used to remove the lengths. | Scissor over comb |
| Removes excess bulk w/o shortening the length.. | Texturizing |
| haircutting technique in which the tips of the shears are used to cut points into the ends of hair | Point cutting |
| Version of point cutting in which the tops of the scissors are move towards the hair ends rather than into them.. | Notching(chunky effect) |
| notching technique in which pieces of the hair are snipped out at random intervals | Free-hand notching |
| process of thinning the hair to gradated lengths with shears; cutting the hair with a sliding movement of the shears while keeping the blades particularly open | slithering |
| technique that removes bulk and adds movement through the lengths of the hair; shears are not completely closed, and only the portion of the blades near the pivot is used | slicing |
| haircutting technique done by placing the still blade into the hair &resting it on the scalp, and then moving the shears through the hair while opening and partially closing the shears | carving |
| technique used to release weight from the subsection, allowing the hair to move more freely | free hand slicing |
| texturizing technique in which the comb and razor are used on the hair surface | razor over comb |
| texturizing technique similar to razor over comb, done with small circular motions | razor rotation |
| haircutting effect in which there is an even blend from very short st the hairline to longer lengths as you move up the head | tapers |
| haircutting technique similar to scissor over comb, except that the clippers move side to side across the comb rather than bottom to top | clipper over comb |
